Does Chiropractic Work?
Chiropractic 101
A better question would be; is chiropractic effective? And the answer is yes! Many patients have benefited from chiropractic care. Patients that hobble in with a limb and can barely walk due to back pain, are walking, jumping and running around within weeks of treatment. It is not a miracle; it is science. Bones slip out of alignment, put pressure on a nerve, and cause symptoms such as pain, numbness, tingling, swelling, etc. There are many reasons bones slip out of alignment, but the major cause is tight muscles pulling on the bone. Other causes may include trauma, pregnancy, poor posture, and more. Chiropractors are trained to detect and treat the bones that are misaligned. The main treatments used at Club West Chiropractic are the chiropractic adjustment, electrical muscle stimulation, rocktape, and physical rehabilitation.
The chiropractic adjustment puts the bones back in place. Electrical muscle stimulation relaxes the muscles to prevent them from pulling the bone right back out. RockTape helps with poor posture that could be contributing to the pain and discomfort. Last but not least, physical rehab is used to help stabilize the spine. All of these treatments used in conjunction help get you out of pain, and keep you out of pain! Our goal is to get you better so you don’t have to suffer and keep coming back.
